    Once again it impresses with new features and solid all-around performance. Although graphics are the same and and franchise mode is the same except for draft stuff. NFL Superstar: Hall of Fame Mode is a very inticing mode in Madden. Unlike last year's version, you actually feel like you're the player because of the new camera angles. Now, you actually have the focus on you and you alone. Plus, if you're say an offensive player, now you don't have to play D, which is awesome. Plus, not having to worry about calling plays makes it feel more like you're a WR, Rb, because they don;'t call the plays. Not getting the ball all the time is also more realistic. You have to make plays and get open on your own. So overall, Madden NFL 07 is another great entry into the long-running Madden football series.… Collapse

    Superstar mode is the best part of this game, but the graphics have changed much since 2004! Its still a great game!

    This game is off the HOOK! Every year I think they can't do any more, they exceed my expectations. The blocking idea was a good idea, but I can't seem to find a good use for it, yet. But, the rest of the game more than makes up for it. The animations, and the breaking tackles more than fit the bill. And, when you figure out that the A.I. make at-the-line adjustments to your defenses, it caps the game as a great one!… Expand

    Gr8 game - 10 if they let you make the regular season schedule blocking is not special.

    New lead block controls are too much in the gameplay. Otherwise the game is funner than ever! Graphics are slightly better and the new superstar mode improved a lot! Madden steped up after buying out all other football franchises.

    Considering that many of the gameplay features are extremely mild remixes of previously included gameplay options, this year’s Madden comes across as a solid title, but one that’s starting to show its age.

    EA's challenge is not to simplify their simulation or stop adding detail, but to integrate those features so well that players can simply marvel at how advanced the game has become. The Superstar revisions are a step in the right direction, since they allow players to focus on the entire game one player at a time, but otherwise that's just not the case.

    It’s so polished and refined. For the first time ever the series incorporates some of my favorite features from "NFL Street" (such as tapping the X button to escape a tackle). That function goes way back to the days of arcade sports titles like "NFL Blitz."
